that the detectives feel confident he is involved and so at this point, that's the reason we felt very strongly to release his information in hopes of somebody calling it in. >> reporter: police are not releasing the name of the victim. they are only saying it was a woman. they are not even saying if she lived here. what we do know is that the suspect, troy nosenzo is married to patricia nosenzo who also lives here. she hasn't been seen all day and her neighbors are worried. >> patricia is a wonderful woman. wonderful woman. she is so friendly, so nice, so energetic, so young spirit. she is a great woman. >> reporter: knowing her husband has been named a suspect? >> it's horrible. he was a calm, quiet passive type so i would have never guessed he would have done something like this but knowing that it happened, i -- i could have looked at the warning signs, you know, there was a lot of warning signs put out there. they were having a lot of marital problems. >> reporter: because of the

really unusual set of circumstances, it took a couple of hours this morning to answer the emergency call that came from this house. that 911 call came in around 5:38 but when the operator picked up nobody was talking on the other end. believing it was one of the many 911 hangups they get every day police had to put that situation on the back burner they say as they had their hands full dealing with some unrelated incidents. a rash of auto thefts on nearby santa teresa turns out the car thieves had placed bricks on the gas pedals of three cars causing themcrash. the cops picked back up on the 911 hang-up call and arrived here an hour and 12 minutes later at 6:50. then another distraction, there were two dogs roaming around the outside. they had to call animal control to secure the dogs. and this took another hour. they got in at 7:50 and found a woman's body in the entryway with a hoodie around her face. there were no signs of a forced entry. now, police are looking for a

gray 2006 chevy silverado pickup truck license plate 8l70015. if you have any information, you're asked to call the san jose police department. it is a mystery as to the name of the victim. they are not naming her at this time. >> no, and joe, i notice you said suspicion of homicide. they are not saying murder? >> reporter: right. sometimes, you know, that's the legal term. they know they have a body. they believe there's something suspicious about it. murder comes at some point later in the system in terms of the charge by the district attorney. but they are saying suspicion of homicide on the man that they're looking for. >> joe vazquez, thank you. up to 18 inches of new snow in the sierra is raising hopes of a snow-packed winter. ski resorts are cranking up the snowmaking machines just in time for the thanksgiving holiday period. boreal may open tomorrow. cbs 5 reporter christin ayers is at blue canyon.

d printer. the machine actually looks like a photocopier and usually generates models like these. >> developed two prototypes. >> reporter: but the group defense distributed is looking to make a real gun. here's how it works. the design of the gun is programmed into a 3-d printer. the printer then shapes the piece of hard plastic into a fireable weapon. the process takes hours. the group is collecting designs from contributors around the world. and the final schematics will be distributed online. then anyone with a 3-d printer and a computer will be able to print a gun at home. >> now crossed the threshold. we're there. we have the -- we have the reality of a weapon system that can be printed out from your desk. >> reporter: the printers cost anywhere from a few thousand dollars to $100,000 and majoring a gun in your garage or -- making a gun in your garage or basement for personal use is within your rights. >> a law-abiding citizens who wants to manufacture a firearm for himself can do that legally as long as that gun doesn't

meet certain criteria. >> reporter: they add making a gun at home is nothing new. but that doesn't mean that they won't be keeping a careful eye on it as 3-d printers could bring a new dimension to making weapons in the u.s. >> we'll also make sure that if it does come to a point where it becomes a concern for public safety, we will go out with messages to the public on some of the concerns in the dos and don'ts with that. >> as for those texas grad students, the company that had initially leased the 3-d printer took it back but we talked to the student who is confident he will have access to a new 3-d printer soon. good news at bay area gas pumps today. the price of filling up is going down. according to aaa, today you're paying about 3.88 for a gallon of regular unleaded in oakland, 4.02 in san francisco and 3.86 in san jose. the national average today is 3.45 a gallon. the highest average price in

of the c-i-a. tonigh and now at 6:30, he led military campaigns in iraq and afghanistan and became head of the cia. tonight, general david petraeus

steps down after admitting to having an affair. petraeus called his behavior unacceptable as the leader of the spy agency. cbs reporter tara mergener in washington where the resignation has shocked the intelligence community as well as top political leaders. tara. >> reporter: indeed. good evening, allen. yes, petraeus' resignation absolutely came as a shock here in washington ending the long career of a well respected and very high-profile public servant. cia director david petraeus submitted a letter of resignation to president obama admitting he had an extramarital affair. the president accepted his resignation. petraeus who has been married for 37 years says he showed, quote, extremely poor judgment when he had the affair. petraeus has been running the cia since september of 2011. before that, he was in charge of allied forces in afghanistan. and he also oversaw coalition forces in iraq. in a letter to cia employees,

petraeus wrote, such behavior is unacceptable both as a husband and as the leader of an organization such as ours. president obama called petraeus one of the outstanding general officers of his generation. the president met with petraeus thursday afternoon. the general offered his resignation. the revelation came as a surprise. petraeus led the surge in iraq and went on to lead u.s. and nato forces in afghanistan. his wife works in the obama administration's consumer financial protection bureau. the couple has a daughter and a son. and president obama says he is confident that the cia will continue to thrive and carry out its essential mission. allen, quite a shock here tonight. >> tara, history has shown in washington is not always a career ender. is there any indication or reason why in this case it ended so abruptly with the general's resignation. >> reporter: not specifically. but there certainly is a lot of

speculation. for one thing, an extramarital affair is considered a security breach and a counterintelligence threat. there's also the theory that it might give the impression to his peers in the military that it's okay to have an affair and then also allen tonight, there's a lot of speculation about the timing of this announcement just three days after the election. also, one more thing. a lot of people wonder if he was such an honorable man, is this a question of honor in his mind? >> i see. tara mergener, thank you. the other big story in washington, the political maneuvering between president obama and republican leaders in congress. both sides are staking out positions on how to avoid what's being called the "fiscal cliff." cbs 5 political reporter grace lee with the chances of a deal being reached. grace. >> reporter: dana, the pressure is definitely on for the president as well as for congress. if they don't act, those tax hikes begin january 1 and really affect almost everyone. we are talking about $3,000 for the average household. well, today it could be the

beginning of the end as there are new signs that there could be wiggle room for a deal. >> i'm not wedded to every detail of my plan. i'm open to compromise. i'm open to new ideas. >> everyone wants to get our economy moving again. everyone wants to get more americans back to work again. >> reporter: could this be washington code for a real compromise? a political science expert says exactly what it is. >> and there's a kind of dance taking place in which each side wants to portray itself as the one that's reasonable. >> reporter: that could be tough on capitol hill. today the president promised to veto any deals that include tax cuts on people making more than $250,000 a year a move republican leaders say will only cost americans more jobs. >> if we're serious about reducing the deficit, we have

to combine spending cuts with revenue. and that means asking the wealthiest americans to pay a little more in taxes. >> according to ernst & young raising the top rates would destroy nearly 700,000 jobs in our country. >> reporter: while the president and the speaker are at odds over income taxes on wealthier americans, they both signal that there are places where they could find middle ground getting rid of tax loopholes and deductions, for instance. >> i do think that this election is important because in providing some cover for republicans,. >> reporter: part of the reason for that is because of exit polls they suggest that a lot of americans want an end to fighting and gridlock on capitol hill. both sides are going to have to give up something, but what that bargaining chip is could be revealed when the congressional leaders meet with the president next week. so maybe we'll get some clues then. >> thank you. well, fears over the "fiscal cliff" caused wall

street to suffer one of its worst weeks this year. the dow did gain today just four points. the nasdaq and s&p also rose by single digits but they are all down more than 2% for the week. a symbol of recovery in the big apple tonight. lady liberty is shining brightly once again. the national park service says this is the first time the statue's torch has been lit since superstorm sandy hit the new york area. however, the statue and its park are still closed because of the storm. gas rationing started today in new york city all because of that superstorm sandy. cbs reporter ines ferre on the rule drivers have to follow so everyone gets their fair share. >> reporter: drivers in new york city and long island had to have a license plate ending with an odd number if they wanted to fill up on friday. >> i'm an even number and they are not letting us online and i needed gas to pick up my daughter. >> reporter: the rationing went

into effect friday in an area where about 11 million people live. cars can fill up gas cans as long as supplies last. >> i think it's a good idea because i was waiting about three hours. >> reporter: here at this queens gas station, the line has been about 20 minutes long since odd/even rationing kicked in. the owner has enough for a few more hours. the superstorm sandy and the nor'easter that hit on wednesday disrupted fuel deliveries and cut power to filling stations. the system could remain in effect for several weeks. police are making sure that nobody cheats the system. >> move your vehicle as soon as possible. >> reporter: but even drivers who follow the rules can end up being the odd man out. >> this is very frustrating. i stayed very long on the line and when i got here they run out of gas. >> reporter: new yorkers who are lucky enough to find gas are paying about 20 cents more per gallon than they were a week ago.

wednesday we now stay dry. next thursday showers are back. sew we'll be chilly but the next five days will be mainly dry. it was not dry in one part of the bay area today. guess what. it snowed. roberta gonzales has more. >> reporter: official sun-up at 6:42 and chopper 5 was high in the sky and yes, paul, guess what chopper 5 found as it skimmed across portions of the east bay and headed to mount diablo and a light dusting of snow fell in the overnight hours and in the very wee hours of the morning light snow. in fact, on an annual basis, mount diablo does receive 1.2" of snow. but in a very rare event. we have to take you back to december 7 of 2009, 18" of snow fell in one day. in fact, i remember that so well. this mountain was just loaded with people wanting to see it. so by the time our photographer alex and i got up here today to take a look at the snow, it pretty much had melted as anticipated but we thought we would tell you about another part of the

mountain as many cyclists across the bay area no. it's the best kept secret. you dress to ride your bike on the bottom of the mountain and you dress for the warm weather. but then by the time you climb to the very top of this mountain, you're freezing! so we decided today to take you along and show you just about that temperature drop on this coldest day of autumn so far this year. it's a cool breezy day here at the base of mount diablo, 61 degrees, not too bad. at 1,000 feet elevation, oddly enough the temperature went up a couple of degrees due to a shift in the wind. at 2,000 feet elevation, the wind is stopped so it doesn't field that bad but i have put a vest on at 56 degrees. up to 2200 feet at the second ranger station, boy, the temperatures dropped significantly down to 46 degrees. at the summit of mount diablo, elevation 3849 feet, the temperature is now dropped 30 degrees. it's freezing!

so for the base of the mount to the top, a 30-degree temperature drop and you see that white box right there? that's the weather station right here at mount diablo. it's all locked up now because they closed the gates to mount diablo at 6:00 which means we're locked in for the night. [ laughter ] >> and it's a very chilly night here in the east bay. reporting from mount diablo, i'm roberta gonzales, eyewitness news will continue. we'll be right back. we're not going anywhere.
